Mark Richards Talks To Marie Osmond About CMN [AUDIO]

I am a BIG Marie Osmond fan and you can tell by the sound of my voice that I was thrilled to speak with her about the importance of calling in during the radiothon to help Childrens Miracle Hospitals, a charity the we both feel strongly about.

Along with actor John Schneider, Osmond co-founded the non-profit organization Children's Miracle Network in 1983. Childrens Miracle Network Hospitals are dedicated to saving and improving the lives of children by raising funds for children's hospitals across North America.

I had the privilege of speaking with her the other day.

Mark’s Work Escape Weekend

So what did you do this weekend? I'll tell ya, the highlight of  my work escape weekend was mowing the lawn and washing/waxing the cars.

You may have heard my son Mark turned 17 on Saturday and he took great pleasure in washing and waxing his new car...well a 2000 Plymouth, but it's new to him.

Mark Richards On Spring Break

Miss me? I miss you, and I miss the arrival of Spring. I'm waiting for nicer weather so I can get the rest on my projects done around the house.

So far I've got the blinds up, the screens up, the hot tub clean and Dylan & I visited Chuck Cheese!

He's a good shot at basket ball!

But the most time consuming project is our messy yard.

Mother nature dumped a whole lot of debris over the winter; branches, pine needles, twigs, pine-cones and more.

It took a day to rake it up and another to haul it out front. Now the yard is presentable and ready for outdoor activity, but, what's that? More snow! ugggg!

Yes, I Was Fooled Into Thinking Spring Is Here

Yes, I thought Spring was coming. I put away the snow thrower (only to have to dig it out again this morning), and I cleaned out the hot tub for Spring dippin'. When my 2 year old took his afternoon nap, I jumped in. What the heck...I will not let Old Man Winter get the best of me. Unless, you hear me sneezing on the air tomorrow morning. :)
